Two men are carrying water while two others are pouring water into the vat. However, with so many loopholes at the bottom of the vat, theyll never store any water, because no one tries to mend the holes.It reminds me of the problems in our study. While studying, we always try to read more books and do more exercises. However, we seldom pay attention to the mistakes weve made, nor do we try to correct them. Therefore, “holes” are left. Day by day, the “holes”, or rather the shortages, bee more and more. No matter how many books weve read, we have never mastered any knowledge. They have leaked out because of the hole.So we should pay attention to the mistakes weve made and the holes we have in our study. Only in this way can we learn much knowledge and fill up our mind with it. 话题短语1a sense of humour幽默感2make a joke说笑话3burst into laughter放声大笑4take the place of代替5have an effect on对起作用6take advantage of利用7keep a good mood in daily life在日常生活中保持良好的心态8be very cheerful every day每天都很开心9be wild with joy欣喜若狂10cant help/resist laughing禁不住大笑【高考试一试】近年来，人们对中国传统节日的关注程度日益下降，而洋节日却越来越受到人们的追捧。你们班就这一现象进行了热烈讨论，请用英语写一篇短文。要点如下：赞成的理由1.有助于吸收外来文化，促进跨文化交流；2有些节日具有教育意义，如母亲节、感恩节等。反对的理由1.外来文化入侵，特别是宗教节日；2失去对中国传统节日的兴趣。个人观点注意：1.词数100左右；2可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3开头已给出，不计入总词数。Nowadays，western festivals such as Christmas and Valentines Day are being more and more popular in China.Whether we Chinese should celebrate these festivals has raised a heated discussion._One possible version：Nowadays，western_festivals_such_as_Christmas_and_Valentines_Day_are_being_more_and_more_popular_in_China.Whether_we_Chinese_should_celebrate_these_festivals_has_raised_a_heated_discussion.Some believe that celebrating western festivals is a sign of globalization，which helps to take in various foreign cultures and improve crossculture munication.Besides，some western festivals，such as Mothers Day and Thanksgiving Day，are instructive.However，others believe that the popularity of the western festivals in China is the result of the foreign cultural invasion.For example，Christmas has strong religious colors.Whats more，young people may lose their interest in our traditional Chinese festivals like Dragon Boat Festival，Tomb Sweeping Day etc.As far as I am concerned，we should value our traditional festivals，which have been an essential part of the Chinese culture.Meanwhile，we can have a taste of the western festivals just for fun.话题佳句1Humour bees part of wisdom.幽默成为智慧的一部分。2A sense of humour may work as a balance wheel in ones life.幽默感可以在人的生活中起调节作用。3Having the sense of humour is the valuable treasure of a humanbeing.具有幽默感是一个人的宝贵财富。佳作背诵假设你是吴刚，喜欢学习英语，在学习的过程中发现自己看不懂一些英语笑话，请根据以下要点给某英文报刊编辑写一封信就这一问题进行咨询。1我是个英语爱好者，英语成绩还不错；2不能理解英语杂志上小笑话的幽默之处；3向编辑咨询出现这种现象的原因并寻求改进建议。佳作欣赏Dear editor，I am Wu Gang，a senior high school student，who loves English very much，and I am writing to ask you for help.I have been learning English hard for about six years and my English teacher often praises me for my excellent performance.However，I am very puzzled when I cant understand some jokes at all in some English magazines such as Readers Digest，although I know all the words.Could you please tell me the reason why I cant take in the humor in the jokes?
